Reader Involvement

Letters to the Editor

We welcome letters to the editor that comment on and further the public debate on topics of general interest. We accept electronic submissions only at cleveland.com/plaindealer/letter-to-editor. Letters that exceed 200 words are not likely to be considered for the print edition of The Plain Dealer, although they can be published on cleveland.com at the opinion director’s discretion.

Reader Advisory Network

Help us cover Northeast Ohio by joining our Reader Advisory Network. We’re looking for sources, leads or opinions. If there’s a big snowstorm, we might ask you what conditions are in your area, or how long your commute was. If we’re doing a story about adult learning, we might ask if you or anyone you know has gone back to college in their 30s or beyond. The Network is your chance to be a part of our stories and to help us provide a range of experiences and opinions to make our reporting more complete and accurate.
